STIFFED - SEX SELLS (nr aukcji: 33932751)

Hailing from Philadelphia, Stiffed mixes a stylishly cool mix of no wave and new wave. The honeyed vocal scratch of Santi White has fronted this fabulous four-piece since 2001, however the name Stiffed has been a permanent word in her vocabulary since her early 20s. Figuratively, White feels stiffed when it comes to bad relationships, lackluster jobs, and the lack of booty in her life. Having a band was her way in spoofing on those typical issues. Joining her is drummer Chuck Treece and ex-Lottery members bassist Chris Shar and guitarist Matt Schleck. Stiffed plug influential bits from the Clash, Blondie, the Pretenders, and Bad Brains into their debut EP Sex Sells, which appeared on Cool Hunter in early 2002. Aside from her own projects, White is best known for producing and writing songs for RES's 2001 debut for MCA, How I Do.

Stiffed's Santi White prances like Gwen Stefani and growls like Chrissie Hynde on her band's official debut release, Sex Sells. This EP is a brash mix of post-punk aesthetic and kitschy new wave bits, and Stiffed gives it to you good with a sucker punch. From the twitchy basslines of "Everybody's Got It" to the gnarling rock romp of "He Looks Good," Stiffed struts with a quirky appeal. They're melodically raw on the punk-pop party of "Yes," but "What You Gon' Do" highlights White's infectious stance as a frontwoman. She's raw, but unafraid to say what's on her mind. If that means she's disappointed with her boy toy of the moment, so be it. Sex Sells screams "Girl Power!" without stereotypical connotations floating in from both sides. It's pure rock & roll and hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!
